Fido/Rogers Subcribers: Which Radio are you using?

I haven't experienced any problems with 1.40, 1.41 or 1.43
But I was just wondering which do you all prefer?
Please state subscriber.

The official Rogers radio version is 1.42.00.00 (i.e. this is what is on the TyTN's that they are now selling). I am using 1.40.30.00 and it is working well for me. Did not bother trying 1.43.00.00 since many North American users appeared to be having problems with it, leading me to believe that it has been tweaked for European users.

I'm using 1.41.00.10 with no problems, though I am using it voice only (no data -- Rogers can go screw themselves with their ridiculous prices /rant off).
Are the majority of problems people having with different radios more on the voice or data side of things, or is that somewhat irrelevant?

I'm using 1.41 on Rogers. I don't use 3G often, mostly just EDGE and voice. Battery only gets me through a day, but besides that, I don't have any voice quality\dropped call issues, data is stable and fast, all is good.

I have had 1.43.00.00 since it was released, no issue's nor have I had any issues with 1.41 or 1.40.
Rogers doesn't seam to have the issues that some of the UK and US systems are having. My guess is that there are fewer providers in Canada and less radio traffic to compete with and more concentrated towers for many areas.

messaging not working now
had sucesssfully upgraded to latest rom by black shodow, with radio 1.43, now messaging is not working, is it bec of radio.

Could somebody kindly point me to the right direction regarding any Roger's roms? I've done a search but came up with nothing

I'm using 1.47 on Rogers w/BBConnect WM5. All seems good. However, my area doesn't have 3G so I don't know how it performs in that aspect.

not worth a change, really
I had original 1.42 for a while. it worked great- got 3g in toronto (even had it in Barrie for a day during testing.)
wifi was good, and battery life was as good as expected.
I'm currently running 1.47, and I don't really notice that much of a difference. 3g seems faster, and WiFi definitely is, but I also flashed a new Rom and updated the wifi drivers too. MMS also works, but to be fair, I never tried it before.
In all, not a huge difference.
Be sure to use Lurch's cab file for setting the Rogers APN/MMS setup info- it's flawless.

I'm using 1.41.00.10 on Rogers network.
I use voice and data (BB Connect + VPN).
No problems.

1.43 on all 5 of our Hermes phones since it's release and had no problems in Toronto.
We use them heavily with Data and since we're in TO we get 3G signals in most places - and I'm very impressed with battery life.
I have experienced problems with 1.46 and 1.47 not being able to receive calls while the device is active, but only a handful of others on this forum have reported the same problems, so maybe I just got 5 bad in a row.

using 1.41 in Montreal (voice only, we know how much data cost in Canada), good reception, battery last long.

I am using 1.47 after usimg 1.43. anyone else think it eays the battery a lot quicker?.
Matt

I am in the GTA and have been using 1.43 since it was released with no issues with voice or data. I was going to switch to 1.47 until I read Aoshi_'s post....now I am debating it... .

I am using original Radio ROM (1.16.00.00) still did not flashed it...i just received the handset yesterday. So my question is: Why i can't get EDGE? I get only GPRS (since there is no 3G HSDPA here) I know we got EDGE coverage here and the specifications of the phone says EDGE class 10, Please would you tell me if i am not using the good radio version?
Answer: not sure, maybe it's from the ROM and it do not displays "E" even on EDGE network. Speed test proof: On Rogers GPRS/EDGE : 100 kilobits/sec (It's EDGE even indicates "G")

1.51.00.10
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=323957
*Fido/Roger
**so far been using 2 days
Battery seems to drain quick compared to 1.38. Very notible once using GPRS/Edge/HSPDA [gprs data seems quicker]
Signal strength is odd. Cell phone shows full strength Tytn shows 2 bars.
- Tytn shows no signal (cell phone shows full) yet when I make a call it is ok
Dropped calls: 2 (in a good area for reception)

1.51.00.10
o Battery life is short
o Missed calls
o gprs - no issues - seemed quick
Swapped to 1.43.00.00
o Battery life about the same as 1.38.00.00
o No missed calls yet - no signal drops
o GPRS seems frozen at times - required to turn off/flightmode and reactivate.

Does your Trinity/Dopod drop calls regularly?

My Dopod D810 from 3 drops calls regularly.
I think every single call will drop out after about 1-2 minutes. I also notice that when my phone is 'warm' from charging or other uses, the call can drop as quickly as 10 seconds into the call.
Initially it was suggested that the drop outs were due to my Phone > Band selection being set to 'Auto' but I have since changed this to Network Type=WCDMA and GSM/UMTS band=UMTS(2100+800).
But now I'm more inclined to think it has something to do with the device's temperature....
Any other ideas other than taking it back to 3?

Try changing the Radio ROM.
I had a similar problem after changing my Radio ROM from 1.41.00.11 to 1.46.00.11. Now I`m using 1.46.30.11 version and everything is OK. I even noticed a GPS signal level improvement.

I have the similar problem too. I m with 3 Australia. Upgraded to WM6 official ROM, still observing if call drop still happened.
If not, will take back for warranty repair

I am using a HTC-branded P3600 with the official HTC GPS-enabled WM5 ROM on the Vodafone UK network. With reasonable approximation I can say that I have 0 dropped calls (including calls made or received while in car).
My network type and band selections are both "auto".
Sometimes I make calls while the phone is charging via USB from a laptop (which makes it rather warm) but I haven't noticed any dropped calls in that situation either.

Excellent idea. I'm currently using Radio version: 1.35.00.11...if I go to 1.4x - are these compatible with WM5?

I`m using a WM5 LVSW edition. Used it with 1.41.00.11 for 3 months without problems, changed to 1.46.00.11 for 2 days and encountered call drop issue, changed to 1.46.30.11 and not even a problem so far.

I am using my trinity with 1.41 and WM6 (AX3L) and I really never drop a call unless I step into an elevator. I am usually on UMTS or HSDPA living here in NYC and cannot complain about my service nor the phone.

I'm using version 1.35.00.11

Thanks for all the replies. Went ahead and upgraded ROM and Radio version to 3.00.707.16 and 1.46.30.11, respectively.
So far, no problems with call dropouts but I haven't made many long calls on it over the last 2 days but will keep assessing.
On the previous incarnation, I had also installed/uninstalled a LOT of programs over the 6 weeks I had had the phone so perhaps that contributed to the phone's instability too...

For me, it kinda worked the other way around...
I never experienced any call droppouts when I still had the original WM5 ROM with radio version 1.33.30.10 on my Dopod D810. (I'm with 3 in Australia)
After upgrading to the ANZ WM6 ROM with radio version 1.46.30.11, I can sometimes not even establish a connection as the call is dropped after the first ring or so. The other day I had to make a call 5 or 6 time to finish the conversation...
Is anybody else having similar issues AFTER upgrading?

Hi guys,
good to see that i'm not the only one that have call drop regularly.
Well, in fact, those are not always call drops.
Sometimes i miss calls and some other times, when i want to make a call, i see that my trinity's loosing the signal and starts to search for networks. Then i have to switch off the phone through the Connection Manager, then turn it on again so that i can make phone calls.
Are you experiencing the same on your device?
I'm still using Radio ROM 1.38.00.11
Do you guys have a link where to download the latest Radio ROM so that i can try it on my Trinity?
Thanks.

Yep, I experience drops after upgrading... But the strange thing is... even after downgrading to the shipped rom... still drops... ARRGHHHHHH
I'm just going to try another rom I think... not sure yet. Have switched my band from auto to fixed. First gonna see what happens.

Some said it is due to 3G/3.5G trying to establish a data connection (most likely for push mail) and in doing so the phone function is disabled. I did not verify this claim.
If anyone wants to test it, you might want to try:
1. disabling 3G and 3.5G
2. disabling data connection
and tell us the results!

I will disable HSDPA. But I cannot disable my data connection because that's THE reason I bought my device for (using it for pushmail but I can use that with UMTS/GPRS connection also, don't need HSDPA for it).

I have found if I have network on AUTO i cant make calls, phone call drops straight away.
Switching to GSM allows me to make calls, but then I have no 3G

Found that radio rom 1.46.00.11 has no calls dropping for me. So I'm gonna stick with that one.
Cheers.

I have this ROM actually installed in my Trinity, and i still have call drops regularly
Once more today, it started to ring, then lost signal.
I'm wondering how much people has the same issue.

I used to have the same problem. I've reflashed my phone so many times coz of that.
But it seems like my problem's finally fixed
I'm using the most updated PDAVIET wm6 rom with Radio: 1.50.08.11
Been using that for about 2 weeks, haven't had a call drop since.
However I have had a few hangs here and there.
I run a lot of apps so the memory is pretty low most of the time. Yet for some reason I'm not getting any call drops so I'm happy. (Finally able to talk for like 15 mins without breaking up)
just fyi i'm also with 3, and don't have that band setting since I luv HSDPA yet certain areas only got Telstra reception...

Calls drop out
Hi, I'm in Sydney with 3 and haven't had any problems at all with the shipped WM5. After upgrading to the latest official WM6 ROM version 3.00.707.18 from the Dopd site things went bad with phone calls and weak signals.
Now upgraded the Radio to version 1.50.08.11 and everything's back to how it 's supposed to be.
Cheers and good luck.

UPDATED Title: Bad 3G/HSDPA lag/timeouts with 1.43, 1.48 & 1.61 ROMs

Got a little question for the french users in here. Can you one of you guys tell me what is the Radio version on the SFR (french Vodafone) ROM? I don't remember it and now I'm running 1.48.
I'm asking this because my data connections is acting up. sometimes when I browse (or do anything else that requires data to be sent/received) the goddamn connection just stawls for 20s. For example I'm browsing with Opera, when I click a link it goes from 3G to H, but every once in a while (well it happens rather frequently!) nothing happens (it doesn't change to H or quicly changes to H then back to 3G in less than a second) and the request times out. It renders the HD2 useless so I have to use a Wifi connection which is a pain in the ass. My iPhone, HTC Diamond, and HTC Trinity work perfectly (all with the same SIM). Unfortunitely I directly flashed to 1.48 and didn't use the phone with the SFR branded ROM (1.44 IIRC) so I don't know if this only happens with the current Radio.
Cheers
UPDATED the thread title as it seems to affect users all over Europe and with all ROMs.

this can help you?

Same problem with Bouygues Telecom and official ROM here.
I turned off the HSPDA in the advanced settings. However i keep switching from 3G to Edge when moving around, in zones that suppose to get fully 3G.
@ugo83130 : Is it the last ROM that you have here ? Is there a release history with the fixed bugs ?

Thanks!
The HD2 seems to have a spotty radio or antena. It keeps going back an forth between 3G & H is place where I didn't have any problem with my Diamond and iPhone 3G. As if sometimes the the data request is rejected by SFR. So the connection stawls for a little while then goes back to normal eventhough I'm sitting and didn't move!

Hello,
not a SFR problem.
I have exactly the same problem with Orange in France.
Waiting for a new radio rom.....

Was the problem here when you were using 1.43 version of the ROM?
Just wondering...

I think this is not just a problem in France because I to have this problem with the radio switching between H and 3G all the time and I live in Holland.
BTW. I also had this on 1.43 so I guess it is not 1.48 related.

Thanks for the input guys.
Just to be clear, going from to 3G to H when a data request is done is normal (it then goes back to 3G when the request is fullfilled). The problem is when it just doesn't go to H and nothing happens for 20s or when it hits H then directly goes back to 3G is less than a second as if the phone lost connection with the network or the request was rejected. This shouldn't happen especially when my iPhone 3G, HTC Diamond and HTC Trinity (just did a test with it) never exhibit this problem.

Upping this one to get more feedback

That's certainly the most important bug of the HD2. 1/3 of my calls fail when 3G is enable. I have to disable it to avoid such problems.

The Radio or Antena does seems to suffer from some sensivity issues. I tested the HD2 and Diamond side by side (2 SFR SIMs with identical full internet contracts). And the Diamond didn't have any problem at all going from to 3G to H then back to 3G when the request were fullfilled. The HD2 kept messing around, sometimes waiting 10/20 secs t'ill it hits H eventhough it was showing more bars next to the 3G/H icon.

It's worst than that. Even in Paris, i have never got HSDPA, but only EDGE. That's ridiculous.

Up please post your feedback if you encounter the same problem.

Those having this problem, can you post you Radio version?

Having exactly the same problem with mine here in sweden..
Operator is 3, no problem with my old Xperia X1
It happens occasionally and i have to turn radio off and switch back on again to get up again. To make a regular call is no problem, just data traffic switching from "H" to "3G" and then it is stucked..

Hi,
I have the same problem on SFR in France.
ROM : 1.43.406.2 (70124) FRE
Radio : 2.04.50.22_2
Before switching to SFR, I runned on an Orange SIM for 10 days and didn't notice that kind of problem.
Some users also posted on htc-touch-hd.forumactif.biz they encounter the problem with SFR.

@ Golgi : Bring people from htc-touch-hd.forumactif.biz here to get their versions too Thanks.

Signal is AWFULL! (When Handled)

I've copied this from the Vodafone (UK) forum - but I don't seem to be the only one with a proble... Any help would be greatly appreciated!
I've had my HD2 for just a few days now and I can honestly say that unless something is sorted soon I won't be using it much longer! I have exactly the same problem in both DT1 and BH20 post codes. Singal is good and strong when the device is left on a desk/table etc... I can have FULL signal but lift the device up and it drops to 3, 2, 1 and then no signal...
I can make perfect phone calls using hands free, but can't even send or recieve a text if I pick the phone up. We're talking less than 24" of movement here so it has to be device related!
Comparing this to the HTC Diamond. The Diamond although showing slightly less signal (2-3bars) is much more stable and non-reactive to being handled.
I'm using the very latest updates with HSDPA/HSUPA disabled.
It would seem that HTC has dropped the ball here.
(HSPL - ROM 1.66)
Vodafone thread - http://forum.vodafone.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=48152&st=0

I replied to your post in the Vodafone forum assuming you were still on the stock 1.43 ROM, but if you are on 1.66 then I am not sure what to suggest as you mentioned that it happens in multiple areas which seem to be a fair way apart and therefore would be on different transmitters (unless you are unfortunate enough to be in several areas all suffering from faulty cell-towers).
I know mine drops a bar when I pick it up but not 2 to 3 and then to no signal...
Maybe you should contact HTC about a replacement? Dont bother with Vodafone as they'll offer you a Blackberry 9700 if they cant fix it...

SOunds faulty to me. There is sometimes a small drop in signal for me when the phoe is cupped in my hand, but not more than 1 bar, usually none.
I'd get on to your provider for a warranty replacement.

Nothing such here. And I'm in a low reception place here, seems it even does better than my previous Kaiser.

Seems that Vodafone is a bit of a crappy network in terms of its compatibility with phones! If it's not text messages staying in the outbox it's data disconnecting/not working and no picture messaging NOW rubbish signal....jeez. I've been on T-Mobile with the HD2 since it arrived in november and haven't had one single problem with texts, data, signal....anything. I've had two different handsets in that time too since I sold the first upgrade.
In all seriousness though I do also have a prototype pro.three (pre-release HD2) and that suffers from low signal/signal dropout so in this instance it seems that you have a faulty unit.
I do hear a lot of moaning Voda users on these forums though which makes me quite likely to steer clear when I get my upgrade in a few weeks.

Vodafone thread - http://forum.vodafone.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=48152&st=0
It doesn't look like its JUST my phone here...
Outside this problem is not half as bad.

Lots of people across the world are having problems with the SMS thing.
Its also not limited to the HD2 handset as I had it on Kaiser when I updated that handset to WM6.5

signal reception seems better (vodafone) however a few including me have an isue of static noise when someone speaks. I have this on 2.07 and 2.08 radios - not sure if its network related. I'm using a custom rom, and have no choise but to use 2.07 or higher, unless i revert back to a previous rom.

If you can flash ROMs try Leo Lite V2.2 WWE with the 2.08.50.08_2 radio.
I'm in a very patchy area and behind solar glass and the above setup gives me signal strength and stability better than any other ROM/radio combo or phone I have ever had. This includes many other HTC and Nokia phones.
I never seem to miss a call now and the SMS problemis gone although I believe that is partly to do with the cooked ROM setup.
Also I can pull in H and 3G signals that I could not before.

Does the ROM actually play any part in this though or is it just the RADIO upgrade? I've just gone over to 2.08 but using the stock HTC 1.66 ROM

have you checked that the battery cover is on correctly? there are to prongs on the inside of it that make it part of the arial

The Rom affects the sms issue (I believe) and my current LeoLite ROM (now 2.3) shows no sms problem and sits well with the radio I mentioned as it unlocks the extra memory.
Addendum
There is a link with ROM and radio through the rilphone.dll that is cooked in to the ROMs.
e.g. The correct rilphone for T-mobileUK will assist in accessing the T-mobile network with the correct protocols required for the services on that network. And same would go for all other operators (who may or may not have their own rilphone file configured to their requirements). I am unaware of any signature that would differentiate between the files, however, it's safe to assume that a rilphone.dll extracted from a stock T-mobileUK ROM would be the appropriate one for their network access.
I haven't seen a lot of experimentation on this although I have tried out various files on the ROMs I have flashed without any real conclusion emerging.
The combination that I mention is just a solid setup that works well for me on my operators network in my location.

telstra HD2 on AT&T

ok so i'm a total newbie at things like this and this my first post/question... i am an att customer from reno nevada i've loved and used HTC phones since the first one came out years ago. i used to have a touch pro 2 aka tilt 2 but fell in love with my buddies HD2 from t mobile. i did some research and found that a telstra HD2 t9193 would work on ATT and get 3g. now i have the phone and i havent the slightest clue what to do. i cant go on the internet and cant customize the phone to me. i can make calls and txt msg but basicly nothing else. now i dont even care really if i get the 3g or not but i want to customize my phone like the quick links and programs and at least use the internet and have things like the weather updates. i cant do any of that.
to sum up i have the phone but alll i can do is make calls and txt msg nothing else,
can some one please walk me through how to set this stuff up and if and when you do assume i'm an idiot or a 3rd grader.

Have you gone into settings/wireless controls and turned on Data Connection?

Chances are he needs to change his APN settings for AT&T.

Well as far as I know the HD2 finds the APN settings. I use a European HD2 on Rogers Wireless, and it found the settings the moment the sim card was installed. But you're right. He should check the APN settings to be sure.

thanks for replying guys so i tried to go into settings>data connection and it gives me a message that 'this connection is pre-configured and cannot be modified.' also that all internet and data goes through telstra internet. and unfortunetely i have no idea what apn settings are or how to change them.
also i got a voicemail from a friend but when i tried to retreive it i got a recorded message about international codes and dialing if that helps you understand whats going on at all

The problem I had with leaving the Telstra rom alone was that the ROM itself is so bloated with the provider's extra features that couldn't be used here in the US, that simply tweaking the registry settings to properly setup my phone to the sim-card wasn't enough. I had to download HSPL. Install it on the phone, and ultimately flash a new rom and radio to finally get to where I wanted it to be at. Overall, I am more than happy with the T9193.
You might want to do the same as well, since flashing the ROM will enhance your experience using the phone (Clean install is always better) and flashing a new Radio will give you better frequency management (Better reception with GPS and UMTS).

Any chance you could provide pointers to what ROM and HSPL you used for your Telstra HD2 on AT&T? I'd like to use an HTC stock ROM, but going to their site the ROMs I find say they won't work on my Telstra HD2 (based on SN).

Flash a different ROM.
The reason it doesn't work is because the stock ROM has the APN setup removed, and is preconfigured with Telstra's APN settings. Other HD2 Roms will have Connection Setup available so you can have AT&T's settings loaded.

lots of info in this thread.
the 1st HSPL version works, then most custom roms.

T 9193 running clean and stable with fair battery life
with all the bat. suckers running. See below for specs. Average 1.3 Mbs down. Stream movie or TV on H with no problems.

flash custom
Yes. I am using a Telstra T9193 in CA, had the same issue. Also, most custom ROMs automatically configure the data/connection settings, which is very nice.
~Anastasia~best rom ever. so far

again thanx guys i really appreciate all the help and the links to more info and i fell good now. ive spent the last 6 hrs reading and learning more. i am going to flash the rom and put a new one on. if you guys could post some links to some good roms i'd appreciate it as well. i think i'm looking for something close to HTCs basic but something that will still work w/ AT&T
also i'm looking to learn how to put HSPL on my phone my version says SPL-1.66.0000 i see on the links how to for other models but i havent found how for this perticular one

i think you have to down grade first by flashing a telstra 1.48 or 1.49 rom.
that should bring your spl down to 1.42.
then you can flash hspl 1 and next the htc generic rom
when i bought my telstra, it came with spl 1.42 and so all i had to do flash hspl 1, then i flashed an oem htc rom.

ok so looking around i found this page on ppcgeeks,,com (wont let me post the real link) and on it it has a hardSPL2 that says it should work with 1.66 i'm still a little confused as to what i'd need to do. is this a good safe thing or not?

oh just saw that the person who created the HSPL2 is a member on here called bepe again though is this a good safe thing? i dont want to screw the phone up

from what i read in the past was that hspl2 doesnt work on telstras hd2. it might have changed since then and i havent kept up on it since ive already flashed mine.
you need to research more to see if that is feasable for the telstra hd2.

Well as far as I know the HD2 finds the APN settings. I use a European HD2 on Rogers Wireless, and it found the settings the moment the sim card was installed. But you're right. He should check the APN settings to be sure.

Are you able to get 3G on Rogers with a European HD2? I thought the European phone only supported 900 & 2100 HSPA whereas Rogers needs 850 or 1900 HSPA for 3G.
